5 Everyday Teas with Super Properties for Clearer Skin
Posted by on
Green Tea
Green Tea is a powerful acne fighter that holds powerful antioxidants and immune boosting properties, which help kill acne-causing bacteria and protects the skin from harmful toxins. These antioxidants, in particular, EGCG (epigallocatechin gallate) encourages skin regeneration and helps reduces inflammation.So how do you use green tea for acne? Green tea can also be consumed orally or topically to treat acne. Drinking 2-4 cups daily can help reduce breakouts and clear up your skin. For skincare containing green tea check out SkinB5’s products that help manage all types of acne whilst helping you to maintain healthy skin, naturally.Rooibos
This caffeine free tea is another popular choice for acne suffers. It is packed with many antioxidants, vitamins and minerals which help protect your skin from harmful free radicals and helps promote a healthier skin, especially zinc and vitamin D. It is suggested drinking more than 4 cups daily will help build upon these antioxidants and can regulate the immune system when fighting acne (by reducing inflammation and redness). Like green tea, rooibos can be either consumed as the regular tea or be used topically to reduce acne. Take a cotton ball and apply rooibos as a toner or over any trouble areas. You can start reaping the full benefits right now! Not only will you feel good by becoming a regular rooibos tea drinker, but your skin will also look good.Chamomile Tea
Chamomile tea is excellent for people with sensitive skin. It has anti-inflammatory properties which helps calm the skin from any skin irritations like rashes, acne, eczema, and rosacea. Aside from the skin benefits, chamomile tea is known to calm and relax your body, which in turn can reduce stress and help balance out hormones – leading to naturally calmer, happier skin. So next time you have trouble sleeping sip on a calming cup of chamomile tea or reap its skin soothing properties.Dandelion Tea
This skin purifier tea is known to help eliminate toxins from the body and help purify the blood, both of which are essential for clearer and healthy skin. It works wonders for acne suffers, due to its antibacterial properties, which helps reduce acne outbreaks and relieves the skin from any redness. It is also packed with antioxidants, which helps fight the free radicals that cause many signs of aging. So, by drinking one cup of this skin purifying tea, you will keep your skin looking plump and ageless!Spearmint Tea
This tea is not to be confused with peppermint tea, it is rich in antioxidants and antifungal properties that help prevent blemishes of any kind and it is excellent for balancing hormonal levels. This tea is a superb choice for those who suffer from oily skin since it prevents the sebaceous glands from producing excess sebum and instead leaves your skin feeling soft and oil free. Drinking spearmint tea regularly may lead to better hormonal levels, which can considerably reduce recurrence of acne and give you clear skin. In order to see improvement in the skin’s appearance, it is suggested to drink 2 cups of spearmint tea daily. And if you do suffer from hormonal acne, I suggest taking SkinB5’s Acne Control Caplets, each caplet contains powerful blemish-fighting antioxidants which work from within to treat facial and body acne and help balance the hormones.The right tea is predominantly good for the skin, it can help diminish inflammation, balance hormones, and help combat poor digestion that may contribute to poor skin. So the next time you crave a hot beverage you might want to reconsider the latte and grab one of these great teas for skin instead.
